This series was co-presented by The Public School New York and Recess Activities. In conjunction with the classes, Recess hosted an exhibition that featured visual works by Clodagh Emoe and Aaron Mette, and audio works by Eugene Thacker and Taku Unami. The exhibition also featured a temporary library of relevant texts, which visitors browsed and annotated freely throughout the gallery's public hours and during the classes.
